Neeraj Grover friends taunt Maria’s ‘innocence’
While convicted Kannada starlet Maria Susairaj held a press conference to proclaim her innocence in the Neeraj Grover murder case, a chorus of voices from the slain Grover’s friends greeted everyone present.
“Let the killer speak,” they cried.
The slain man’s friends made sure they attended the press conference called on the very day that Susairaj was released from Byculla women’s jail as she has already been in jail during the trial for three years, the length of her sentence. She was found guilty only of destruction of evidence.
The press conference didn’t go very well for Susairaj and her lawyer, who refused to answer any question put to them regarding the killing or the trial, instead merely reiterating that Susairaj was innocent.
Speaking for her, her lawyer said they would even move the Bombay high court as she felt she was completely innocent in the matter and wanted to prove it.
Addressing the media, Sharif Shaikh, Susairaj’s lawyer, displayed a photograph, reportedly of Grover’s skeleton, and stated that the skeleton did not look like it had been chopped into 300 pieces.
“The whole purpose of holding this press conference is to show that Grover’s body was not cut into 300 pieces,” Sharif said, and added, “Look at the photograph. The skull, ribs and legs are intact. Clearly, the prosecution’s whole case was false.”
However, when asked why Susairaj went to a mall to buy a knife to cut up the body instead of calling the police, for which she had ample time, neither the convict nor her lawyer had an answer.
“We don’t have to say anything about the case. The judge has convicted Maria and that is more than enough,” Sharif said.
